Wish-bone Salad Dressing Giveaway

Today is national (iced) coffee day! Since Dunkin Donuts still hasn’t made it to California, I have to settle for homemade stuff.

But, I would like to made this a formal invitation to DD to open a location in Irvine,CA asap. P.S. Florida DD, I’ll see you soon!

My gym has a spa and I have major uni-brow so I peeked in to see if they had an opening for a quick wax. (source)

Unfortunately, my skin is super sensitive and every time I get waxed I need to hide my face for hours. It’s probably for the best as I have a lot of gross pimples this week (my head is angled a certain way for a reason).

In other red news… I told myself my last watermelon would be the final one of the season. Um, I couldn’t stand it any longer and stopped at the store for one serving. If Costco has them next time I go there I’ll probably get another “last one of the season”.

Wish Bone Salad Sampler Kit Giveaway!!!!

If you’ve been reading RER for more than 1 day you might have noticed that I LOVE salads (always have even before the blog, just like running). I also LOVE volume eating – this giveaway is right up my alley.

Wish-Bone Salad Dressing Co. challenged me to get out of my salad rut by trying one of their new salad dressings. They sent me four kinds, a new salad bucket and a gift card to purchase salad ingredients.

I used the Mediterranean Italian on today’s salad and have used the Bruschetta Italian as a steak marinade for Ben in the past. He was raised on this stuff and loves it on protein.

I really appreciate that they understand the need for a BIG salad bowl!!!

I picked up some chopped veggies and tuna to change up my salad today.

The bowl comes with a lid, plus an extra compartment for dressing (or chocolate for lunch dessert).Wish-Bone wants to challenge you to get out of your salad rut too! And they are sending a “Salad Sampler Kit” to one RER reader.

To Enter: Leave a comment answering “When was the last time you had a salad (side or entrée)?”

US residents only. Ends Friday 9/30 at 12pm PST. *Disclaimer – I was sent this salad sampler package plus a few for my friends for free. All the opinions on RER are honest and 100% my own.

There is usually a salad on my menu everyday, but my favorite recent salad is from a local restaurant that serves a ‘Mediterranean Tuna Salad ‘ this salad is no joke!!!! Greens topped with feta, artichokes, black olives and a cooked-to-order tuna STEAK! MMMmmmMMMM. <3

I try to eat some salad everyday. Last night’s didn’t go over too well since the lettuce was not long for this world. I picked out a few of the best pieces and turned the salad into a wrap with chicken, artichoke hearts and bell peppers.
I’m not going to the store today so I’m still out of lettuce. I might try my hand at egg salad for the first time in like 12 years (salad is right there in the name, so it totally still counts).

I had a southwest salad about 6 hours ago. It was 10:30am, but I just finished taebo and a 3 mile run and was STARVING! I had to share. Salads are my 2 year old son’s favorite, and he was drooling all over mine.

I actually just had a salad for lunch today! I haven’t been having them as often as I’d like lately but these dressings look awesome! I’m all about the toppings too – I eat all the veggies and chicken I put on top of them and then am too full to eat the lettuce sometimes! whoops ;o)

My last entree salad was this past weekend. My campus has a pretty good salad bar in one of the dining areas, and I usually throw EVERYTHING in there. And then when that’s not enough, I go over to the side station for the grill & add in stuff from there–sauteed mushrooms, grilled onions, pickles. Yah, I get really random…

My last salad was for lunch today and a pricey one at that. I hit the Whole Foods (aka Whole Paycheck) Salad bar. Lots of raw veggies, kale salad and bunch of this and that. So good! LOVE your blog. And I’m not just saying that because I want to win

You should totally try threading! I started getting it done about 3 years ago and at first it makes your eyes tear (and you kind of sneeze while they’re doing it, but it doesn’t hurt). In addition to not hurting as much as waxing, it’s much easier on your skin and it’s much more precise as far as shaping goes!

I had a giant taco salad the other day for lunch. It had romaine, taco baked chickpeas, guacamole, salsa, and crumbled tortilla chips. It was very satisfying as I have been completely off salads lately. I am ready to break my rut! that bowl looks awesome too!

I had salad today because I realized that this week has been lacking vegetables. I’m so glad I did because it ended up being incredible.

My secret ingredient? I had one of those cheese-less Amy’s organic pizzas for dinner last night and had a couple of slices left. I was going to pack the slices for my lunch when I decided to just cut up the pizza and toss the pieces into my salad.

Had a nice size salad for lunch 4 hours ago. I was inspired, by all your salads you picture on your blog, to add a crumbled up leftover hamburger patty, from two nights, chickpeas, and a handfull of crushed TJ’s Oriental Rice Crackers. Just dressed it with a little rice vinegar and olive oil. It was yummy!

I had a spinach salad today, but forgot my dressing at home! So sad… but, I had roasted walnuts and goat cheese so I can’t complain that bad! (The bowl is soooooooooo cute! I have a thing for wishbones and wear a teeny silver one as a good luck charm!)

I have a spinach salad for lunch everyday! It usually has spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes, raw green beans, a little cheese, and either a hard-boiled egg or some tuna. Sometimes both! oooh with Salsa for dressing as well!

The last time I had a salad was about 2 hours ago…. made a delicious salad full of romaine lettuce, black beans, corn, pico de gallo, cheese, chipotle ranch dressing and of course there were tortilla chips on the side!! Love the blog, love salads and am definitely in love with that salad bowl!!!

for dinner tonight! a reincarnation of an old favorite- black bean burger, spinach, tomatoes, avocado, colby jack (chunks, not shredded- it’s key). no dressing, but i wish I’d had some
jalapeno ranch for it!

My eyebrows are super sensitive too! I get mine threaded and everytime I go they think I have contacts in because my eyes water so badly. I can’t use lotion or anything afterward either or I’ll break out. Niice!
I had a salad for lunch today. It was a pretty large bucketful, but that wishbone bowl looks like a bigger bucket. I love salad buckets, but they take me forever to eat.

I usually have 2 salads a day! I love the act of eating a salad. If you are looking for stress relief during work lunch there is nothing like stabbing your fork into a bucket of salad. Sounds weird typing out but whatev…It is the little things in life right? : )

I ate a salad two days ago when I made it for roommate dinner. My roommates are amazing cooks and make delicious stake and salmon on the nights they prepare dinner. I am not as culinarily talented and I decided to make a salad or dinner! We had steak (it was leftover from the previous night), craisins, apples, feta, cucumbers, and sesame seed dressing….yummy!

The last time I had a salad was last night at dinner, which i savored!!! I live in Korea and veggies are MUCH more expensive than they are back in the states! Which sucks for this salad lovin’ volume eater!

last time I had a salad was tonight when I ate out at Outback…
I would looooooove one of those salad containers with the compartment for dressing!!! If I don’t win, do you know where I could get one?
Thanks

Does having a green smoothie count as a salad?
I actually made a salad last weekend every day! I’d make them during the week but I don’t really have a great container or lunch box for them! I’ll have to look for that salad container, pretty handy!

For the contest: I had a tuna salad for lunch on Monday. It might have been yesterday, I can’t remember.

I remember Dunkin in LA/Southern Cali when I was a kid, but didn’t know why we had none around anymore so I looked it up. Supposedly, the market was already saturated with Winchell’s and mom and pop shops. I am looking forward to a DD visit or two when I go to NY in a few weeks.

A real salad with a fork? Hmm..maybe a week ago? lol. My wraps that I eat for lunch everyday are more like salads on top of a tortilla though! [I fold it over like a giant taco] ^_^ A portable salad in which I pick it up using a tortilla 8D. Spinach Onion, tomato, and either tuna salmon chicken or lean ground beef with baby carrots and the awesome new [to ours] Jalapeno Greek Yogurt Dip Cosco has!

First of all, that salad bowl is AWESOME! I had a salad for lunch yesterday (Thursday) and have one packed again for lunch today! Spinach is my favorite salad base (I know you didn’t ask that, but I wanted to share.)

monday, tuesday and wednesday! I am usually not a huge salad fan but I found one that i love! At the deli, i choose all my toppings, add either goat cheese or blue cheese and have it chopped with NO dressing. The creaminess from the cheese is perfect!!

I could probably save some money, if i did this myself at home giving that here in NYC salads most more than my unborn child.

You have to try threading! I get red-face post-wax too and I do not get it with threading.
The last time I had a salad was yesterday for lunch. Spinach with goat cheese, red peppers, sweet potato, and a veggie burger.

It kind of depends on what you consider a salad. I think I had what would definitely be considered a salad Tuesday with supper, but since then, I’ve put black beans and rice on top of salad mix with salsa–does that count as salad? I’m thinking yes. I’ve also sauted spinach and topped it with egg. I’m thinking that’s not a salad.

As for a salad, like in spinach or lettuce…too long. Whoops! I’ve been munching on whole tomatoes and other ‘salads’ like tuna and quinoa options of late. LOVE quinoa mixed with just about anything. I think that counts. I think it is the whole issue of how to bring my dressing to work, so that my coworkers don’t steal from my bottle holding me back. This bowl would totally solve that!

I have a salad at least once a day and if I really don’t feel like cooking I will have a salad for lunch and dinner… Its getting cooler in Minnesota so I have to get my salad fix before the snow flies and my body starts to crave hearty comfort foods.

That is the coolest salad bowl – I need one for work so I can carry a little side of dressing too, instead of the whole bottle! I had a salad for dinner last night, and will probably have another one tonight from Chick Fil A. Those Southwest Salads are my weakness!

I eat salad for lunch 99% of the time. They are good, yes- however i need to get out of the rut big time. Its whatever leftover protein from the night before, mixed greens, broccoli and some sort of dressing. Sometimes i have to gag it down, true story. So, after that nice little gem… pick me!

I last night. I actually just had a salad. I am recovering from a knee surgery and to be honest, i am non weight-bearing so it is hard to get up and make salads. When I saw the bowl loved loved it. The bowl is big enough to hold a great salad and appears to keep cool if you do not eat it right away. loved it.

AWESOME giveaway! I have tried the bruschetta italian which i dont really like it on salads- but my fiance LOVES it. Im sure it would be a great marinade. I eat salad every-single-day ever since i discovered costco wholesale romaine lettuce. love. and cheap

i eat a salad every day for lunch and with dinner! my current go to salad: pickle chips, bbq sauce, and sliced char crust chicken breast! (if you havent had char crust- GO GET SOME NOW! http://www.charcrust.com/home/index.php your chicken will look burnt and not appealing- but it will be the juciest and most delicious “i taste like i was cooked on a grill but i wasnt” chicken youll ever have!)

I had a salad with dinner last night. We have a side salad with dinner EVERY night (it’s the only way I can get my husband to eat some veggies!). I do tend to have them a lot for lunch since they’re easy, versatile, and healthy (potentially).

Let’s see, when was the last time my lunch or dinner didn’t include salad would probably be the better question. I live on salad! If I could find a way to not be weird and eat one for breakfast, I probably would!

I actually had a salad last night for dinner!! I have a salad every day in the summer and early fall (I have a garden and grow lettuce, onions, peppers, tomatoes, etc). My favorite salad is BBQ chicken with grilled veggies w/ light ranch!! Soo good, I love the hot/cold combo!!

Umm I love salad, I eat them pretty much every day either lunch or dinner… Yesterday was the last one I ate- Raw spinach with chicken salad- dried berries- goat cheese and red wine vinagrette… absolutely lovely!

I just had a salad for supper tonight. It was sorta lame tho because I really need to shop. It was some bagged stuff with a smattering of different greens. I dumped on some dried cranberries and almonds and a little bit of french dressing…which I really don’t care for but once again…i need to shop.
